Re: [Flashcoders] TreeDataProvider - "There is no method with thename'addTreeNode'"
I warned you it ight fail silently with a cast (a failed cast always returns
a null) . the "cleanest sollution" is to extend xmlNode implement that
interface and proxy those methods defined on the interface to the xmlNode
methods. this might seem like a fair bit more work, but down the line it
makes your code much more maintainable. if you want quicker compilation
times use mtasc -keep, but doing things right is a good habit to get into.

RE: [Flashcoders] TreeDataProvider - "There is no method with thename'addTreeNode'"
In the light of longer compilation times and the hours wasted with issues
like this...
Shouldn't we consider the claim that strict-typing cuts down developement
time as one of those completely unfounded urban legends?
;-)
> mx.controls.treeclasses.TreeDataProvider
Sounds great, but I still don't get it to work - no compiler error, but also
no node added:
import mx.controls.treeclasses.TreeDataProvider
class Test{
function Test(){
var myTreeDP:TreeDataProvider = TreeDataProvider(new
XML());
myTreeDP.addTreeNode("node", 0);
trace('cast to TreeDataProvider '+myTreeDP);
// avoid Compiler error when publishing for Player 7
var myTreeDP = new XML();
myTreeDP.addTreeNode("node", 0);
trace('untyped '+myTreeDP);
}
}
Output:
cast to TreeDataProvider null
untyped
Cheers!

Thanks Derek - that's it!
Not typing the dataprovider as XML allows to publish for Player 7:
import mx.controls.Tree;
class Test{
function Test(){
// Published for Player 7. Error: There is no method
with the name 'addTreeNode'.
//var myTreeDP:XML = new XML();
// Compiles fine when not typed as XML
var myTreeDP = new XML();
myTreeDP.addTreeNode("node", 0);
}
}
Cheers!

"missing intrinsic class issue" good guess.This happened to me upon
upgrading to Flash 8. I had to downgrade each instance to an Object and
the

var myTreeDP:TreeDataProvider = TreeDataProvider (new XML());
myTreeDP.addTreeNode("node", 0);
thjis might just fail silently though, but should work
is an example of how we use it.
